hi, I installed all Daniel's deb packages. I didnt build the drm radeon.o, I dont know how, it doesnt build by compiling from source package (unlike Michel's source package) and I dont want to experiment with make-kpkg which I dont know.

OK, I am beginning to understand the whole concept of XFree.

If I solve it I am done. display off and on when in hi-resolution. I really think it's a BIOS issue, though. I may try bugging IBM a bit. They are pretty supportive My BIOS is oct 2002. Do you think they provide some kind of user upgradeable BIOS images? I will try to contact them, but if you know a link, let me know... Out of curiosity, are you using APM or ACPI? I'm using APM because of problems in the IBM ECDT which they have promised to fix. APM, compiled in, and it was working with 4.2.1 (OpenGL was not working then, that's why the whole story). I have *no* experience with ACPI at all, but I have them as modules. thanks Dominik -- ------ Dominik Szczerba, Dr. CO-ME, D-ITET, ETZ F85 ETH, Gloriastr. 35 CH-8092 Zurich http://www.vision.ee.ethz.ch/~domi -- ii swear i never use vi^[:wqZZ -- ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

So I have to quit X, suspend, wake up, startx. Not bad, but could be better. Half-done. I cant use your key combination trick, Kevin, because I cant go back from console to suspended X sesion. Or I dont know how to do it (I press alt+ctrl+F2 to go to console, alt+f1-f5 switch consoles, and alt+F7, which is supposed to bring me back to X, hangs all the display and I dont see nothing anymore.

Re: [XFree86] Thinkpad A31 and Radeon Mobility 7500
Why wasnt my OpenGL working with my debian with 4.2.1, while it was working on the same machine with knoppixCD 4.2.1. If I know what the problem was I want to go back to 4.2.1 and have APM working. See the bugs filed about this against xlibmesa3-gl. Compiling 4.2.1 with gcc 3.2 doesn't work well. that could at least explain why it was working on relatively old knoppix and other old instalation on another A31. I was using 4.2.1 debian/unstable before, and AFAIK they are recompiling everything to 3.2 now... ciao Dominik -- -- Dominik Szczerba, Dr. CO-ME, D-ITET, ETZ F85 ETH, Gloriastr. 35 CH-8092 Zurich http://www.vision.ee.ethz.ch/~domi -- ii swear i never use vi^[:wqZZ -- ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Re: [XFree86] Thinkpad A31 and Radeon Mobility 7500
Hi, The problem is precisely defined now: IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH APM NOR SUSPEND. I turned suspend off in the BIOS, now re-opening the LCD brings the display back (but no sleep mode of course :( ). BUT FN+F3 alone kills the display, it goes completely black, then, after pressing a key the backlit lamp starts, but the display doesnt come back. THE LAPTOP IS ALIVE, I type in blindly "reboot" and it works, shutting down all services and rebooting. I checked the same fn+F3 procedure with suspend on in the bios -> the same, no difference, the laptop is alive, but no display. Please, any ideas where to troubleshoot? thanks&bye Dominik ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

If you're still using my packages, have you read /usr/share/doc/xserver-xfree86-dri-trunk/README.Debian ? yes, right, xdm authorize works :) APM still hangs my laptop (display doesnt come back) Keep in mind though that my packages are bleeding edge DRI CVS snapshots, you may prefer to use Daniel Stone's 4.2.99.x packages. 1) Why? 2) Can I safely uninstall your packages? 3) Why at all? Both knoppix and exactly the same laoptop of my coleague are working without installing latest XFree? Maybe I am just doing some simple error? I checked everything, /boot/config, tried 5 different kernel versions... <_sigh_> Not sure. First of all, are you sure you haven't mixed up the 'frames in 5 seconds' and FPS values? I ask because it's an easy mistake, and 1200 no no, 1.2 kfps, 6kf/5s components because the use of interrupts decreases CPU usage (set RADEON_NO_IRQS=1 to test this). if I do this I get: 295 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.000 FPS * how up to date radeon_dri.so is (the newer the better) yours * how up to date the DRM (radeon.o kernel module) is (the newer the better) yours, I copied radeon.o to my modules KNOPPIX is older, so why is it faster? * whether page flipping (Option "EnablePageFlip", only in 4.2.99.x or later) is enabled (page flipping is faster) * the AGP transfer rate (beware, anything more than 1x may be unstable) and whether AGP fast writes (Option "AGPFastWrite") are enabled (may again be unstable) How do I do that?

Re: [XFree86] Thinkpad A31 and Radeon Mobility 7500
Hi, The story goes on: I very much apologize for my ignorance on kernel-package stuff. I just compiled the modules myself, and brute-force copied radeon.o into my /lib/modules. IT WORKS! No more errors, no unstabilities (well, still I cant login, I have to kill login window, login via console and then startx). However, I get 20% less acceleration than with (older?) knoppix XFree... glxgears give exactly 1kfps (0.1 before), while knoppix reports 1.2kfps. It is not disaster, but I am just ambitious: why did it all happen, and how/if could it have been avoided with normal sid xfree... and still, why is knoppix faster? thanks a lot for getting me on the right track Dominik On Tue, 18 Feb 2003, Dominik Szczerba wrote: > Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2003 16:41:32 +0100 > From: Dominik Szczerba <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [XFree86] Thinkpad A31 and Radeon Mobility 7500 > > Hi, > > Thanks a lot for hints.
